The Sword Pavilion, as well as the surrounding area, had been completely ruined.
Although many people were interested in this place, the underground fire hadn't been extinguished. The Heaven Alliance and the other big sects didn't say anything. So, nobody dared to touch this place!
Xu Que was even more disdainful of this place. Even if he said that this place had been taken over by the Exploding Heavens Faction, he really didn't want to spend any effort to create a new territory here. After all, he could leave in one or two months.
That night, Xu Que, Lan Xinyue, and the rest of the people went back to the hostel.
This time, nobody dared to disturb them. Even the shops around the hostel had been closed. Even the girls who were standing on the street had left several streets to do their business. Nobody could be seen on this bustling street. It was like a street of ghosts!
Xu Que didn't care about these things. He believed that in a few days, those so-called big sects would come looking for him again. They would try to win him over or curry favor with him. After all, this was the treatment that powerhouses would receive no matter where they went.
When Lan Xinyue returned to the hostel, she was not in a good mood. So, she went back to her room early.
Lan Hetu and several young apprentices of the Lihuo Academy stayed in Xu Que's room. They poured tea for him and kept praising his strength. Especially Lan Hetu, he kept calling Xu Que "brother-in-law". "Brother-in-law!"
They were not snobbish. What Xu Que did was really amazing. He had killed a cultivator at the Initial Stage of the Earth Celestial Stage at the Half Celestial Stage! Nobody could believe it!
However, the fact was right in front of them. They saw Liu Hualong's dead body and Xu Que's destructive power, which was really amazing!
"Alright, alright. Come, tell me more about Brother Wu." Xu Que quickly stopped them from flattering him and changed the topic.
He was quite interested in Brother Wu. Lan Xinyue's mood fluctuated obviously. Apparently, there was a story behind it!
When Lan Hetu heard Xu Que's question, the smile on his face suddenly became stiff.
One of the men said, "Brother Achilles, Brother Wu is really a good man. His name is Wu Shifeng, and he is in the Medium Stage of the Human Celestial Stage. It was not easy for Sister Lan to take care of us. She was responsible for the life of so many of us. She almost died several times. Especially two years ago, she was almost killed by a queen ant. Fortunately, Brother Wu helped her."
"So you saved my life!" Xu Que nodded slightly.
"Not only that!" Lan Hetu suddenly said with a wry smile, "After Brother Wu saved my sister, he gradually got closer to us and often brought us Vital Rice. Although the quantity was not much, at least he saved our lives. I can feel that he has a special liking for my sister!"
"Well, that's normal!" Xu Que replied indifferently. It was quite normal for an excellent woman like Lan Xinyue to be pursued by someone.
Of course, it was also because he didn't have any interest in Lan Xinyue. If someone pursued Jiang Hongyan, Xu Que would find out where that person was buried. Even if he was dead, he would dig up that person's body and whip it! "Alas!
"Alas, it's a pity that a year ago, Brother Wu and my sister went to the western suburbs together and found a huge nest of Vital Ants. At that time, many people were fighting for it, and the situation was very chaotic. My sister got a Vital Rice which was worth a thousand years of lifespan, but she was immediately plotted against. She was injured by a palm and the Vital Rice was taken away. Then Brother Wu appeared and threw her out of the nest of Vital Ants. After that, the whole nest collapsed and was trampled by ten queen ants. No one survived!" Lan Hetu couldn't help but sigh when he said that.
Xu Que raised his eyebrows, "A grain of Vital Rice which was worth 1,000 years of life? Isn't it equal to 10,000 grains of Vital Rice which I have now? "
"Exactly! That is a very rare treasure! According to my sister, there were at least five or six grains of Vital Rice in the nest. But nobody could get them out. Later, many people went to that place to dig, but they couldn't find any Vital Rice. I guess the Vital Rice was taken away by those queen ants!" Lan Hetu said with pity.
The Vital Rice which could increase one's lifespan by 1,000 years was a treasure that countless people would fight for in the Xuanhuang Continent, let alone in the Lost World!
"Interesting! Since there is a grain of Vital Rice which could increase one's lifespan by 1,000 years, maybe there is a grain of Vital Rice which could even increase one's lifespan by 100,000 years! I should find a chance to go out again!" Xu Que squinted his eyes with great interest.
If all the Vital Rice could only increase one's lifespan by one month, he wouldn't be interested in it. But if one grain could increase one's lifespan by 1,000 years or even 10,000 years, it would be a real treasure!
The most important thing was that his lifespan had been reduced by dozens of years. There was a price to pay for using the Reincarnation Palm in this place. Once the Lifeless Qi failed to hit the opponent, Xu Que would lose part of his Vital Qi. Even if he hit the opponent, if the opponent's lifespan was not long enough, the Vital Qi absorbed by him would not be enough to make up for the Lifeless Qi he had used.
To put it simply, it was like gambling. When Xu Que used the Reincarnation Palm, he was gambling with more than 10 years of his lifespan. After throwing out the Reincarnation Palm, it depended on whether he could hit the opponent or how much Vital Qi his opponent had.
Like the Queen Ant and Liu Hualong, who had reached the Earth Celestial Stage, Xu Que usually won once he hit them. But now, Xu Que suffered a loss. In the fight with Liu Hualong, he consumed a lot of his Vital Qi. At last, he was able to control his opponent and use the Six-color Fiery Lotus.
However, after that fight, Xu Que was sure that he couldn't use the Six-color Fiery Lotus easily in the future. It was too dangerous. If he didn't use it properly, he would lose his life.
"Brother-in-law, how is the arrangement of your Void Interface Spell going?" Lan Hetu asked as he looked at Xu Que at this time.
Xu Que waved his hand, "Don't worry, I guess it will take one or two months. During this period, don't wander around. Just stay in the inn and practice. If someone comes to you in private, remember to tell me! "
"Oh? Who will come to us? "Lan Hetu and the rest of the people were curious.
Xu Que smiled, "That's a lot!"
He knew the style of those big sects very well. According to common sense, they would definitely come. And no matter what their purpose was, the most suitable targets for them would definitely be Lan Hetu and the rest of the people.
…..
The next day, Xu Que moved a chair and sat at the entrance of the inn.
He was leisurely playing Ge You Paralysis on the chair. He enjoyed it very much. From time to time, he checked the arrangement of the spell by his Little Gold Clone and observed the surroundings with his Soul Strength.
Beside him, there was a sign that said, "Consulting service of the Exploding Heavens Faction, 2,000 grains of Vital Rice per hour, starting from one hour, 8,000 grains of Vital Rice per night!"
